Hello everyone. I know I posted right before this one, but I just felt the need to make a new post for this. This is truly a matter of concern...
My friend's mom is on her deathbed, literally. I saw my friend today for the first time in awhile, and she is all upbeat and cheery. She acts like nothing is wrong, and I she is being incredibly strong. I just feel that she is going to break down, and I'm sad for her. I feel awful, today we just acted like everything was how it "should be", if you know what I mean. It is inevitibel that her mom will die soon, and I just know I won't know how to act. What to say. What if I say something I shouldn't? Another thing, me and my friends "joke" is to say "your mom." I could say, "Hey, let's go ride our horses." Someone will yell "Your Mom." I have no idea how it started, but it has just become habit to say. I can't say that in front of her...what if I do? Ughh. Another one of our favorite quotes was "Your dead to me, boy. Your more dead to me than your dead mother." From Zoolander, and we always made fun of his whole funeral euliogy (sp) and the use of the term. It is just not funny anymore, honestly, I just don't know how I should act. She is acting like everything is fine, and I just acted like myself to day.
Thanks if you read this, any advice would be great. I have never really had to deal with a death before...
